Everybody knows their pet is one of a kind–and they really are. To capture "who" their pet is, I have owner's tell me stories about them and these stories inspire my portraits. More stories of loyal friends, tennis ball obsessions, and woodland creature fixations can be found on my Facebook or in my latest posts here and here.

My last black lab, Captain Black(The Captain), never let a lake, pond, or watering hole, go by without his checking it out in person. I always kept at least two towels in the back of my minivan, just for wiping off the excess fun before driving home. :D There were two things I could always count on the Captain doing. That was one of them, but the other was farting all the time. They were always 'Silent Sliders' and had this uncanny way of slapping you in the face. LOL!

I loved, loved, LOVED them all! Any chance you could turn my beloved Monstie into 'The Pajamanator' (his pink blankie cape-wearing super hero alter ego)?? I'd be ever so grateful and will undoubtedly weep uncontrollably! :-D Monstie-be...4783ef.jpg
Thanks so much. I love your slab of cat. A superhero for sure. I have info on how to commission a portrait on my website http://www.chrisbeetow.com/pet-portraits/
